Opera tease

Okay, first things first. I know that nobody likes a tease. I know that. And I really do have so much to tell you about my evening at the Syracuse Opera's piano rehearsal of Rigoletto, from meeting conductor John Mario di Costanzo and opera director Catherine Wolff to the beautiful performances to the more B-side stuff like fudgsicle sticks, Minnie Pearl, and the smoothest opera pickup line of all time.

But I'm afraid it's got to wait until tomorrow, when I can go through my orange felt tip notes and actually extract something lucid and meaningful and not just my usual Cathy Wolff has a glow-in-the-dark pen! shenannigans.

Until then, here's what I can tell you - this is going to be a great, gorgeous, heartbreaking show.
